Where

Various — backyard-style format

Who it suits

Paddlers drawn to endurance and repetition rather than speed.

Sensible experience

Solid distance base, and experience of paddling while tired and cold.

Equipment

Comfort-first board and clothing, lighting, and a proper feeding plan.

Where this comes from

A curated entry from the organisers' published information. Formats and venues for this style of event vary — check the specific event you are entering.

What makes it distinctive

There is no finish distance — only when you stop.

What preparation matters

Repeat-effort training, nutrition, foot and hand comfort, and a plan for the night hours.
